Except as provided in subsections (b), (c), and (d), the amendments made by this Act shall take effect on October 1, 2025, and shall apply to payments under parts B and E of title IV of the Social Security Act ( 42 U.S.C. 621 et seq. , 670 et seq.) for calendar quarters beginning on or after such date. If the Secretary of Health and Human Services determines that State legislation (other than legislation appropriating funds) is required in order for a State plan developed pursuant to part B or E of title IV of the Social Security Act ( 42 U.S.C. 621 et seq. , 670 et seq.) to meet the additional requirements imposed by the amendments made by this Act, the plan shall not be regarded as failing to meet any of the additional requirements before the 1st day of the 1st calendar quarter beginning after the first regular session of the State legislature that begins after the date of the enactment of this Act.
For purposes of the preceding sentence, if the State has a 2-year legislative session, each year of the session is deemed to be a separate regular session of the State legislature. In the case of an Indian tribe, tribal organization, or tribal consortium that the Secretary of Health and Human Services determines requires time to take action necessary to comply with the additional requirements imposed by the amendments made by this Act (whether the tribe, organization, or tribal consortium has a plan under section 479B of the Social Security Act or a cooperative agreement or contract entered into with a State), the Secretary shall provide the tribe, organization, or tribal consortium with such additional time as the Secretary determines is necessary for the tribe, organization, or tribal consortium to take the action to comply with the additional requirements before being regarded as failing to comply with the requirements.
The amendments made by section 5 shall take effect on the date of enactment of this Act.
